Portal: Prelude

Name: Portal: Prelude

Description:
Portal: Prelude, as its name states it, is an unofficial prequel to the game Portal. Its story revolves around the pre-GlaDOS epoch, even before she was plugged in. At this time, test subjects were monitored by real Aperture Science employees whose work was tedious, lengthy and repetitive. This is why they decided to build a great artificial intelligence that could both replace them in these difficult tasks, but also take responsibility for many other tasks within the complex and compete with Black Mesa's superiority. All employees of the Aperture Science complex are now eagerly awaiting GlaDOS. Maybe even a little too eagerly, as the upcoming events will tell...

Planet of the Cartmans 2

Name: Planet of the Cartmans 2
Story:

Cartman isn't dead! He is actually planning his revenge on the whole universe by transforming everyone into his slimy, dumb, fat and hateful self. In the sequel of the well-received fatass slaughtering game, you must guide Stan, Kenny and Wendy through 30 levels of mayhem and destruction which is inhabited by the same Cartmans that appeared in POC, plus many more deadly critters and new recruits to Cartman's ranks. Expect to see Cartmans with jetpacks, Snakoid Cartmans, Cartmans that wield big miniguns that can take a beating and many more brand new enemies that are as deadly, if not deadlier.
The game also feature different difficulty levels that should challenge every kind of player around, ranging from the platformer unexperimented to die-hard gamers that spend their whole days playing games. There's also different types of levels through the whole game and a brand new engine that allow for more obstacles and more varied level layouts. The new obstacles include underwater sections, moving platforms, and expect some puzzles to solve in your quest as well. This is one platformer that you won't want to miss!
This new version of the game solve various issues with the gameplay and solves a problem with the loading/saving problem near the end of the game.
In the South Park Gaming Archives' Awards show of 2005, this game won awards for Best Action Platformer, Best Cutscenes and Best South Park Game of All Time.
This game has been rated 4 stars by CNET.
